How to share the loot in team hunts fair?

Question

How to share the loot in team hunts properly, so that it's fair for everybody?

Answer 1

The fairest method I know for sharing loot with team is the following:

At the end of the hunt all players loot something , the 2 guys that will have the most loot should be Paladins and Knights so at the end each of the team just need to say their balance. Example:
 

	BALANCE
Hakai Mage	-150000
Tito Maton	2300000
Elder Fluffy	-220000
Asabel	450000

With that you can save some money movements and you dont need to throw every single item to the EK.

With this method the EK dont need to sell a huge amount of items , all team receive their part very fast and there is no need of giving all the loot to a single guy who will need to sell everything.

Answer 2

When there's profit it's rather easy to share, I'll address the scenario where there is a waste, as it's the reality of most lower level hunts.

Example:
|    EK: -18k    |    ED: -48k    |    RP: -1k    |
|    Loot: 50k    |    Waste: 67k    | Total: -17k

So, it sounds strange, what would actually need to happen for the hunt to be 'Fair' is:
We use 30k to get ED and EK at the same loss.

|    EK: -18k    |    ED: -18k    |    RP: -1k    |
|    Remaining loot: 20k    |

With the remaining 20k we use 10k to the EK and 10k to the ED leaving us with:

|    EK: -8k    |    ED: -8k    |    RP: -1k    |
|    No remaining loot    |

Still, this is not fair, because EXP wise, they've all received the same exp and were exposed to the same dangers.
The strangeness of the term 'Fair' comes now.

The RP pays 7k to the ED and to the EK

|    EK: -1k    |    ED: -1k    |    RP: -1k (-15k)   |

And this may seem wrong, but the reality of the issue is the investiment made by both, the ED and the EK before the hunt wasn't taken into account.

Is fair good, or bad ?
I can't tell, I can tell you this is one way of looking at the issue, but still, communication with the peers and colleagues is also a great way of finding the balance on the loot sharing.

Answer 3

Example (Wrong form):

Hunt 4 vocations

Waste

EK: 10K

RP: 10K

MS: 25K

ED: 40k

Total waste: 85K

Loot: 100K

If you sharing the loot in equal parts:

EK: +15K (Profit)

RP: +15K (Profit)

MS: 0K (Nothing)

ED: -15k (Waste)

Example (Right form):

Hunt 4 vocations

Waste

EK: 10K

RP: 10K

MS: 25K

ED: 40k

Total waste: 85K

Loot: 100K

If you pay first all waste and then sharing the loot in equal parts:

Paying waste: 100K - 85K + 15K Profit

15K Profit sharing in equal parts:

EK: 3,75K (Profit)

RP: 3,75K (Profit)

MS: 3,75K (Profit)

ED: 3,75K (Profit)
